Tower of Babel on top of Burson...?

Must be the easiest A/B testing in the world. If you remove Minas Tirith, what happens to the sound?

Thanks for explaining. But you gotta admit, there's a certain resemblance to Bruegel's Tower of Babel:

What's between your THX and glass mushrooms? Looked like a Meier something but I can't figure it out.

That is the Lake People RS-06 DAC being fed from CMA400i Spidf out

Don't like the looks of the Utopia and Stellia, but I must say the Clears are gorgeous. Didn't expect them to look better than the Klipsch, seeing them side by side.

Like two different worlds of aesthetic. If it were movies it would be sci-fi vs. old timey western. In terms of build the HP-3 edges out the Focal. IMO Focal loses points due to the metallic painted plastic cup rings. The Klipsch does not compromise anywhere in the build they look and feel like an industrial piece of art in your hands.

Nice analogy!
Wow, are those rings painted plastic? That's ridiculous! Still, I didn't notice it, so who cares?

I thought it was some new kind of barbecue. And I thought it was genius to run it off the heatsink fins. Seriously green conservation of energy!

My latest acquisition the V 281 Final Edition, hoping it will compliment the Felks Elise nicely.

Updated the system today nothing new on the headfi front. But I did finally get around to adding a subwoofer to my 2 channel system. I got a JL Audio Fathom F110v2. I was going between them and the rel s510 but from feed back and recommendations I went with the JL.

It has made a pretty big improvement in the sound overall. After using REW and some slight eqing with roon the bass response is pretty flat in my room. There used to be a pretty big dip at 100hz and 80hz of almost 12db and now it is gone with no boosting in the eq just some very targeted cuts. I will add a second sub when we buy a house with a larger room but for now this works great in my room 10'x13'x8'.

A big bonus is that this was alot cheaper than upgrading to the Magico S3MK2 for another $20k on top of trading in my speakers. Plus I really like 2 speakers they do the disappearing act better.

Very Nice!

The Hegel is a cool sounding amp and with the Magico's extruded aluminum enclosure it has a bass signature that's hard to match a sub to. The auto room correction of the JL should create a great synergy between them, the perfect solution.

Congrats on the upgrade !

Thanks the sealed enclosures help to provide a really tight bass response. I know there are folks that think magico speakers are bass light I think it has more to do with the speed and how tight the bass response is from a sealed enclosure vs a ported speaker. The same goes for subs I much prefer a sealed sub over ported designs.

I am happy that the sub has gotten my speakers closer to where the abyss is. The abyss is so good that it has had me chasing upgrades for my two channel system.
